If you take a look at my reviews, it's the 30+ ladies who score the points.   Life experience, combined with understanding themselves and life, makes for a much better date.  Personally, I like multi-hour appointments and dinner dates, and that may be part of it.

Boy...you've hit it right on the head.  Invariably, I've noticed that the performance reviews are universally inflated based on looks and age.  Younger and hotter looks yeild higher performance reviews than what are really earned.  I guess so many guys are so visual, they just can't seperate out looks and performance accurately.  If you ever see an ad that shows some barely 18 hottie showing her face and body clearly, especially if it's in a nasty pose of some kind, the reviews are almost always 1's or 2's.  The young ones are almost never hot in the performance department.  And, if they are actually O.K. in the performance department, they're rated higher than they should be solely because of thier good looks.  Give me a hot blooded, mature, professional, reasonably good-looking, 30-something girl any day!!!!!!!!!

i think the younger ones get higher ratings for looks more often, but for performance, life's experiences and maturity seem to win out.  PLUS I think the older providers have just been in biz longer and have a better understanding of them selves and the clients.

I have seen reviews that contain something like:  "She was incredible in bed, and her oral skills are unbelievable.  If she was 15 years younger she's be my ATF...", or some words to that effect.  My first experience in this hobby, at age 18, was a 40 year old woman.  That was 37 years ago and nothing really has changed.  By and large the more mature provider knows more about men and what they're doing to us.  This doesn't mean that there aren't younger providers who are excellent in their own right.

The single most erotic week in my life was last November in Florida.  I saw 3 providers that week:  average age almost 47, oldest was 51!  Wow!

I'm in complete agreement with all the other guys who have commented on the 30+ providers.  Without exception the very best experiences I've had have been with gals over 30yr...these are the gals that know how to be a 'total woman' while the younger ones usually still have that to learn.

I myself have experienced both. There is only so much time a woman has in this industry and there are too many legit girls in their 20's who are just as good if not better in bed than the 30's ( the M/ashleys and Amy Taylors out there!) The young looks AND a thrilling roll in the hay... if I am going to pay $$$$$, I'm going to really go for it!

I personally believe that a lot of reviewers will give the younger providers higher marks on looks just because of their age.  In my many years of experience I do like the young pretty faces, but routinely there is something lacking in performance.  What I have found is that there are a number of very attractive mature 40+ providers out there that not only have it in the appearance department, but are more than outstanding in performance.  I think it has to be something to do with their experience in the business.  A couple of ladies that come to mind are Aria (who is retired), and Celeste who has had per profile removed but still very much available.

Most of us are looking for girls with the skills, experience and sophistication of a woman in her '40's, but the energy, freshness and taut body of a 20 year old.  In my experience, you CAN have it all, but be prepared to pay for it.  I have been with many of the most highly regarded ladies all around the country and for my money, it's alot easier to find a precoscious 25 year old with skills beyond her years than a 35 year old that REALLY has the body of a 20 year old.  This is not a absolute law, and I am a lot worse for wear myself I must admit, but its a pretty good rule of thumb from my observations.  You LA guys are pretty lucky - you have the best 20-somethings in the country with Amy Taylor and Morgan Ashley.

...who works out and is a good provider over a free session with a 20 something newbie to the business. That's how strongly I feel about it.

Time and time again, I'll go for the 20's and wish I had the 30's. But that's just me.

Well.. I am 40, in my prime, 95% of my clients do NOT review per my request, and I make a solid 6 figure income.  I escorted when in college as well.  This is definately BETTER!!
